Why Go for On-Grid Solar?

Do you have access to the electricity grid, but want to enjoy all the benefits of solar energy? By connecting solar panels with an inverter to the electricity grid you will use a clean energy and will not need heavy batteries, therefore your initial investment is much lower. The on-grid system is straightforward and will lead to savings on your electricity bill immediately.

The advantages of on-grid systems:

Solar energy is a great alternative to traditional energy sources.

You use the sun to produce clean, domestic electricity with your own solar panels.

Without batteries, you simply take electricity from the grid when consumption exceeds your production.

You receive savings on your electricity bill when your production exceeds consumption.

So… How Does It Work?

It’s simple. We install the solar panels on your roof and connect them to an inverter which converts the electricity for you to use. If you do not need this electricity immediately, it will be directed into the national electricity grid and your meter will run backwards!

You can only sell back as much electricity as you are taking from the grid. Therefore we can design a custom on-grid system which covers your entire consumption, both day and night. The excess energy produced during the day will be stored in the electricity grid and can later be recovered by paying an access rate. Now that’s saving money with clean and reliable energy!

Your system will be connected to the electricity grid and you are now able to start using solar energy!

Maintenance & Warranty

And after your system has been installed? An advantage of solar products is that they don’t need exhaustive and expensive maintenance. However, all components need to be periodically checked and cleaned in order to keep the system operating efficiently.
